Book Synopsis Critique of Pure Education by : Robert W. Watson
Download or read book Critique of Pure Education written by Robert W. Watson and published by Gatekeeper Press. This book was released on 2023-07-21 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pure education prepares students to be statesmen for central, state, and local governments, the finest scholars for colleges and universities, and other leaders in society. Many of the fine merits of this book center on revealing the actual foundation of American schools and supporting a comprehensive view of instruction that transmits ideas and not just processes. This book plainly explains why there is no excellence in American schools and provides a blueprint for students to rise above mediocrity. According to the author, pure education exists only in a familial context where students are considered unique. Since they ignore the unique gifts of individual children and promote the idea of the “average” student, the public schools do not educate, but merely create uniformly trained workers for the power elite in America. If education is to survive in America, then home schools must be equipped with this vital critique to provide explicit substance while complementing parental instincts. Included as an appendix in this third edition of Critique of Pure Education is a thought-provoking essay about education in the United States, titled “The Educator and Cultural Reclamation,” written by Dr. James E. Kibler, author, poet, and professor of Southern literature at the University of Georgia, Athens. Parents who are concerned about the proper education for their children must read this book, because the well-being of their children depends upon it.
Book Synopsis A Critique of Pure Teaching Methods and the Case of Synthetic Phonics by : Andrew Davis
Download or read book A Critique of Pure Teaching Methods and the Case of Synthetic Phonics written by Andrew Davis and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-11-16 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Critique of Pure Teaching Methods and the Case of Synthetic Phonics examines how research into the effectiveness of teaching methods can and should relate to what takes place in the classroom. The discussion brings to light some important features of the way we classify teaching activities. The classifications are unlike those we use in natural science – for instance, how we classify drug dosages. This point has very important implications for what should be considered the appropriate relationships between educational research and classroom practice. Andrew Davis applies the results of this discussion to the teaching of early reading, focussing in particular on the approach known as synthetic phonics. He provides a philosophical investigation into the nature of reading, and into the concepts that feature in approaches to teaching it, such as the idea of building words from letter sounds, the nature of words themselves and reading for meaning. He concludes with a discussion of why this matters so much, reflecting on how stories and books can be part of a child's emerging identity within the family. He explores how values of family life should be weighed against the importance of achievements in school, and argues for the claim that school reading policies of certain kinds may have a destructive impact if they are felt to trump the private interests of children and their families.

Book Synopsis Kant's 'Critique of Pure Reason' by : Jill Vance Buroker
Download or read book Kant's 'Critique of Pure Reason' written by Jill Vance Buroker and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-10-06 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this introductory textbook to Kant's Critique of Pure Reason, Jill Vance Buroker explains the role of this first Critique in Kant's Critical project and offers a line-by-line reading of the major arguments in the text. She situates Kant's views in relation both to his predecessors and to contemporary debates, explaining his Critical philosophy as a response to the failure of rationalism and the challenge of skepticism. Paying special attention to Kant's notoriously difficult vocabulary, she explains the strengths and weaknesses of his arguments, while leaving the final assessment up to the reader. Intended to be read alongside the Critique (also published by Cambridge University Press as part of The Cambridge Edition of the Works of Immanuel Kant in Translation), this guide is accessible to readers with little background in the history of philosophy, but should also be a valuable resource for more advanced students.

Download or read book Kant and Education written by Klas Roth and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-04-23 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Immanuel Kant’s moral philosophy, political philosophy, and philosophy of judgement have been and continue to be widely discussed among many scholars. The impact of his thinking is beyond doubt and his ideas continue to inspire and encourage an on-going dialogue among many people in our world today. Given the historical and philosophical significance of Kant’s moral, political, and aesthetic theory, and the connection he draws between these theories and the appropriate function and methodology of education, it is surprising that relatively little has been written on Kant’s contribution to education theory. Recently, however, internationally recognized Kant scholars such as Paul Guyer, Manfred Kuehn, Richard Velkley, Robert Louden, Susan Shell, and others have begun to turn their attention to Kant’s writings on education and the role of education in cultivating moral character. Kant and Education: Interpretations and Commentary has gathered these scholars together with the aim of filling this perceived void in Kant scholarship. All of the essays contained within this volume will examine either Kant’s ideas on education through an historical analysis of his texts; or the importance and relevance of his moral philosophy, political philosophy, and/or aesthetics in contemporary education theory (or some combination).
Book Synopsis Beyond Legal Reasoning: a Critique of Pure Lawyering by : Jeffrey Lipshaw
Download or read book Beyond Legal Reasoning: a Critique of Pure Lawyering written by Jeffrey Lipshaw and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-27 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of learning to ‘think like a lawyer’ is one of the cornerstones of legal education in the United States and beyond. In this book, Jeffrey Lipshaw provides a critique of the traditional views of ‘thinking like a lawyer’ or ‘pure lawyering’ aimed at lawyers, law professors, and students who want to understand lawyering beyond the traditional warrior metaphor. Drawing on his extensive experience at the intersection of real world law and business issues, Professor Lipshaw presents a sophisticated philosophical argument that the "pure lawyering" of traditional legal education is agnostic to either truth or moral value of outcomes. He demonstrates pure lawyering’s potential both for illusions of certainty and cynical instrumentalism, and the consequences of both when lawyers are called on as dealmakers, policymakers, and counsellors. This book offers an avenue for getting beyond (or unlearning) merely how to think like a lawyer. It combines legal theory, philosophy of knowledge, and doctrine with an appreciation of real-life judgment calls that multi-disciplinary lawyers are called upon to make. The book will be of great interest to scholars of legal education, legal language and reasoning as well as professors who teach both doctrine and thinking and writing skills in the first year law school curriculum; and for anyone who is interested in seeking a perspective on ‘thinking like a lawyer’ beyond the litigation arena.
Book Synopsis An Analysis of Immanuel Kant's Critique of Pure Reason by : Michael O'Sullivan
Download or read book An Analysis of Immanuel Kant's Critique of Pure Reason written by Michael O'Sullivan and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Immanuel Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason is one of the most influential works in the history of philosophy – not to mention one of the most challenging. Its topic is the nature of human knowledge, and the question of whether or not it is possible to have knowledge of the world at all. Over two centuries later, Kant’s treatise remains a subject of fierce debate among philosophers, who continue to offer new interpretations of his meaning. What is not in doubt is the work’s originality and brilliance – nor its mastery of creative thinking. Creative thinkers are able to bring a new perspective to questions and problems, look at things from a different angle, and show them in a fresh light. Kant achieved this by mediating between the two major schools of philosophical thought concerning knowledge – empiricism and rationalism – to create a complex third way. Where empiricists believed all knowledge is founded on experience, and rationalists believed true knowledge is founded on reason alone, Kant evaluated their arguments and proposed a third position – one incorporating elements of both, but within specific limits. As infamously dense as it is profound, Kant’s Critique shows creative thinking operating at a level few can aspire to reach.

Book Synopsis Democracy and Education by : John Dewey
Download or read book Democracy and Education written by John Dewey and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 1916 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: . Renewal of Life by Transmission. The most notable distinction between living and inanimate things is that the former maintain themselves by renewal. A stone when struck resists. If its resistance is greater than the force of the blow struck, it remains outwardly unchanged. Otherwise, it is shattered into smaller bits. Never does the stone attempt to react in such a way that it may maintain itself against the blow, much less so as to render the blow a contributing factor to its own continued action. While the living thing may easily be crushed by superior force, it none the less tries to turn the energies which act upon it into means of its own further existence. If it cannot do so, it does not just split into smaller pieces (at least in the higher forms of life), but loses its identity as a living thing. As long as it endures, it struggles to use surrounding energies in its own behalf. It uses light, air, moisture, and the material of soil. To say that it uses them is to say that it turns them into means of its own conservation. As long as it is growing, the energy it expends in thus turning the environment to account is more than compensated for by the return it gets: it grows. Understanding the word "control" in this sense, it may be said that a living being is one that subjugates and controls for its own continued activity the energies that would otherwise use it up. Life is a self-renewing process through action upon the environment.
Book Synopsis Theoretical Philosophy after 1781 by : Immanuel Kant
Download or read book Theoretical Philosophy after 1781 written by Immanuel Kant and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-05-20 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, originally published in 2002, assembles the historical sequence of writings that Kant published between 1783 and 1796 to popularize, summarize, amplify and defend the doctrines of his masterpiece, the Critique of Pure Reason of 1781. The best known of them, the Prolegomena, is often recommended to beginning students, but the other texts are also vintage Kant and are important sources for a fully rounded picture of Kant's intellectual development. As with other volumes in the series there are copious linguistic notes and a glossary of key terms. The editorial introductions and explanatory notes shed light on the critical reception accorded Kant by the metaphysicians of his day and on Kant's own efforts to derail his opponents.

Book Synopsis Philosophy Outside-In by : Christopher Norris
Download or read book Philosophy Outside-In written by Christopher Norris and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2013-08-23 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christopher Norris raises some basic questions about the way that analytic philosophy has been conducted over the past 25 years. In doing so, he offers an alternative to what he sees as an over-specialisation of a lot of recent academic work. Arguing that analytic philosophy has led to a narrowing of sights to the point where other approaches that might be more productive are blocked from view, he goes against the grain to claim that Continental philosophy holds the resources for a creative renewal of analytic thought.
